Shoto

@everyone. If they're trying to prove nessie is real, why don't they just unlock the lake?

Katsuki

You don't have to do that every post.

Izuku

But he intended it for everyone??

Rody

You can't make him leave his friends out. :(

Sometime after Bakugou's kitchen rules post

[anhonestsoul]

Hey I'm cooking dinner tonight, what're we all craving?

I was thinking fish n chips or seafood rice, but I'm open to suggestions

[fullgauntlet]

Can you make fried chicken, Rody-kun? Kacchan banned me...

[anhonestsoul]

How t f are you banned

Aren't you the responsible one?

[callmekacchan]

Banned for telling me I can't ban people.

Katsuki is unreasonable.

[fullgauntlet]

[SO UNREASONABLE.]

You still can't ban people, Kacchan!!

[callmekacchan]

Watch me.

[anhonestsoul]

Isn't that like an abuse of power or something?

[callmekacchan]

No.

[Yes?]

If he wants to prove me wrong so bad he can try.

[anhonestsoul]

Man, you run a tight ship, don'tcha?

Well, it's not like I can do everything in the kitchen on my own. I might need some help once in a while.

[callmekacchan]

Who says you're doing all the cooking??
You think I'm just banning people without plans to do cooking myself??

[anhonestsoul]

Well, you ban enough cooks, soon enough the kitchen's empty.

I mean, there's only four of us and you just kinda cut our numbers in half.

[Not that he even intends to follow those rules.]

[callmekacchan]

Two cooks for four people is more than reasonable.
If they wanna help they can do the cleanup.
Even a moron can't fuck up washing dishes.

[fullgauntlet]

As much as I'd like to think I am...

Kacchan thinks Todoroki-kun will ruin any cooking he does in there. As for me? I was just believing in us as a group. We would all be fine in the kitchen!

He didn't think so.

[anhonestsoul]

Well, that's kinda dumb if you ask me.

[An idea hits him then, and a grin forms on his face.]

Say, he may not let you cook, but he didn't say anything about helping out others, did he?

Cause I'll probably need some help making that fried chicken you requested.

[fullgauntlet]

Eh? Really? You'd let me help you, Rody-kun??

[He's sparkling!! ✨✨✨]

[anhonestsoul]

Sure, why not? I can even show you how to make a mean beer batter for that fried chicken.

[heir_conditioned]

Chips of what?"

[anhonestsoul]

Chips?

You know, fried sticks of potatoes?

Or do you guys call it "fries" in Japan?

[heir_conditioned]

They were called 'No that's dipped in oil' back home for him.

Neither, but I think that could be a justified translation. Clarity was all I needed. It's vague to leave it open ended on what the chipped off item could be.

[anhonestsoul]

Wait do you guys not have chips/fries in Japan??

[heir_conditioned]

We have a similar word in translation, something akin to fried potatoes, I'd think. But they're not chipped off, they're cut into strips or chunks sometimes.

[anhonestsoul]

Yep, here those are called chips. In America they're called fries, so sometimes people get confused over them I guess.

Though now I'm kinda wondering about how Japanese-style chips sound. You know how to make them?

[heir_conditioned]

Chips. That's a more concise way to refer to them. I like that better. Fries makes sense too. I took a picture of the way we refer to it and wrote it underneath so you can sound it out.

[And yes, yes he did. An actual picture of Japanese writing since he's pretty sure they don't have different keyboards on this thing and that if he could understand every written language the text on the network would be pretty daunting.

But it's a picture, just on some paper with: フライドポテト spaced out over it and their corresponding sounds under them. Shoto has also tried to include the food he's talking about, he hasn't tried it, because his diet can't be fries. But he has seen it. On TV or on passing billboards or even friends who have had it.]

That's what it is. My assumption is it's the same way, just fried, stripped potatoes.

[anhonestsoul]

[Woah hey, is that Japanese words? He zooms in to read each letter carefully.]

Woah, that's cool. So they're just called Fried Potato? Pretty straightforward.

I think that's the first time I've ever read Japanese! Didn't realize each letter was a sound

[heir_conditioned]

[Oh. The first time?? He hadn't even considered that, it never even struck him. Wow that's a really good feeling to have been someone's first on something language wise.]

Yes I'd think that's the closest. It's a pretty literal translation, I think. If you want to learn more written Japanese, I can help you. It is sounds, but there are various methods we use to write. Would you like to see your name for instance?
